I can't find the fuel filter on location on the truck

It does not have a user-serviceable fuel filter. In 2004 when GM went to what is called a "returnless" fuel system, they incorporated the fuel filter into the in-tank fuel pump. That means from 2004 to present, the only way to replace the fuel filter is to replace the entire fuel pump.

this is a picture showing the fuel filter location.

its probably an in tank filter. look for accsess to fuel pump through a plate in the boot or under the back seat some cars theres need to drop the fuel tank to accsess the pump/filter assy

It is located midway along the frame of your truck.

Remove the fuel filter from the bracket on the frame rail. Replace the fuel pipe O-rings if you find any cuts, nicks or distortion in them. Slide the new filter into the bracket. Remove the caps you put on the fuel pipes and connect the threaded fittings back to the filter. Tighten it to 18 ft-lbs.

Fuel filter is located on the inside frame rail under the drivers door. To disconnect the fuel filter, you need a quick fuel line release wrench.

Thank you for using fixya and good luck.

You dont mention what model 1500, 2500,3500 ect. or the engine code (8th VIN digit) thats really needed to answer questions with accuracy. but if you cant find it, between the fuel tank and the engine, its in the fuel tank, and you dont need to replace it until you replace the fuel pump at approx 125-150K miles

Should be on the right side rear frame rail

there is a filter under the pickup near the tank it gets plugged with dirt or dust and it makes the fuel come back at you while filling .. which in turn shuts off the gas nozel.. clean the filter and this will fix your problem.. thanks and holler if you need more Jerry

If you have one, it's located under the drivers side of the cab on the inner rail part of the frame.<p>
Now some of these do not have one. Call the dealer. He'll need your VIN number. Some came without a fuel filter.

I have been told by a mechanic that the fuel filter is inside the fuel tank. Have to either drop the tank or remove the pickup bed. Access is on the top of the tank. This is poor engineering.
